Understanding and Preparing for Our Changing Climate

A scientific investigation into how climate change is affecting the communities, ecosystems, infrastructure, and industries of the Empire State.

In partnership with leading academic institutions, science organizations, community leaders, and others, New York State is undertaking a comprehensive research effort to better understand and document how climate change is affecting our state, what future impacts may be, and how we can prepare for them.
